The Jersey Shore phenomenon shows no signs of stopping any time soon. And 50 Cent, ever the opportunistic businessman, wants to get in on the action. TMZ is reporting that Curtis is pursuing the hit show’s DJ Pauly D for a three album deal with his G-Unit label. According to the gossip site’s sources the two men met in New York last week and while no official signing has taken place they are already planning out the deejay’s future including merchandising and musical collaborations. 50 is apparently looking to get this deal done before Pauly D begins filming his show’s next season which will take place in Italy. TMZ contacted the Queens rapper but their calls were not returned.
In other 50 news, he continues to hustle on the tech front. He has partnered with social media company UberSocial to create his own free application. The app will be called Uber50 and it is a Curtis-centric version of the UberSocial phone theme. The theme features custom icons designed by 50, access to the G-Unit Twitter list, and exclusive artwork. There is also an Exclusive G’d Up Edition of the theme which will cost you $1.99. That version comes with sound effects created by 50, more exclusive artwork, and the chance to get a Twitter shout out from the G-Unit CEO.

UPDATE: DJ Whoo Kid recently sat down with Shade45’s morning show to confirm reports that DJ Pauly D from MTV’s Jersey Shore fame would be joining G-Unit. Whoo Kid acknowledged the signing and said that it makes sense, since 50 is trying to “get in the club scene.”
“He has new records that he wants to showcase and since 50 is doing a lot of, especially with the Hot Rod situation, he wants to broaden the horizons. He wants to get in the club scene and what better way?”
He went on to add that the signing may not be to G-Unit necessarily and that it would likely be to G-Note, a G-Unit subsidiary that primarily caters to Dance, Pop, R&B artists.
“I think he’s G-Note,” Whoo Kid added. “Well, I haven’t got the full thing yet but I’m assuming he’s G-Note.”
Hot Rod, who is mentioned in the article, is another act signed to G-Note. After waiting for years for his project to be released, he is eyeing a drop date later this year. He’s been reportedly working with dance acts like David Guetta, Akon and others including Pharrell Williams of the Neptunes.
In 2010, Hot Rod spoke about this with VIBE, as we reported.
“G-Unit Records is hardcore street influenced Hip Hop music, but with G-Note it’s more of a Pop, Dance and R&B feel,” he said. “I’m like a fusion of both. You’re still going to hear me rapping but it’s on a different style of production.”

50 is always on his hustle game…. I respect him for that…Go get it 50!!!!!!
Its good that 50 cent is goin to make house music because his raps suck since 2003 and his last album went wood. Puffy already did some housemusic, also usher and busta rhymes and snoop.
Its now official keeping it real is over in 2011!
his last album went gold.. before you hop on the hate bandwagon know your facts
pardon me that i offended your big rap hero.his last album went gold! and i dont hate i tell the truth that he only had one decent album.
I still dont understand why you guys in the US have respect for 50 i mean in europe we shit on this guy!
Maybe he need some advice from pauly D to pick up girls. I mean we all know that 50 is ugly as hell and only get girls because of his money.
jugding his looks? a lot of fags in europe, huh…
50 looks like a Gorilla with clipped Pit Bull ears for fighting!!
AHAHAH good one gorilla pitbull ears
Shits funny LMAO!!!
Remember when 50 wanted to sign the Edward dude from twilight???
G-Unit is dead!!!!!
Fuck you! Wanna settle this in the streets bruh?
LOL 50 Cent is desperate of coming back by signing a cast of Jersey Shore. 50 Cent sucks anyway. He can’t rap, sing or even act. A worthless human being. Gucci Mane and Justin Bieber are the best emcees of all time. KRS-One stated that Bieber has the sickest skills on the mic and he murked him in a freestyle 10 times already. Gucci Christ will save you from the current state of hip-hop. Listen to Gucci and you’ll get straight A’s in all your classes.
It’s Gucci Time!
your a fucking faggot if you think that fucking gucci mane and fucking justin beiber are the best MC’s of all time you are fucking stupid why dont you go get a fucking ice cream cone tattoed on your face too while your at it you moron!!!! gucci mane aint shit compared to half the rappers out there 50 obviously can rap and act and hes not stupid either he knows damn well what hes doing and hes doing it right…you dont just get half a billion dollars net worth from being a moron… your so stupid it hurts!!!!
i missed your posts guccirap.. where you been at??
“This Dude” obviously doesn’t get it. lmao
hiphop is so gay nowadays, rappers with skinny jeans which are singing in songs doing remixes with house dj’s.
Remember that 50 Cent was in Ibiza and Ibiza is known for housemusic and a lot of faggots and guys who are dressed like women
you’re a moron…
@ Jesse Scotto are you offended? Do you were skinny jeans you faggot.
– This is not a good deal fif – u need to sign solid acts like uncle murda – bring that hardcore – Kendar Lamar – Bring those lyrics – Jay rock – That hard west coast – go after these up and coming acts. Mac Miller – I mean fif needs to pull his finger and flex his muscle – Goon up your squad – Solid Mc’s….no homo!
Don’t even watch Jersey Shore, more power to them though fuck it. I dropped MTV from my viewing yearrrrsss ago as well as mainstream radio. Next.
lol this dude is desperate…he never could rap and game/nas/jadakiss ended this bitches career a long time ago, g unit is dead
What’s next? The Situation signing with Young Money? It’s insane how rich these guidos are getting.
lmfao!!
dope as fuck
WTH??? 50 failed by signing this wack ass dude. All of these young rappers with talent out here and he wanna sign a reality show buffoon. Show some courtesy Curtis!!!!
FAGGOTRY
This is the height of faggotry.
Wow he can sign this dude but he couldn’t sign Beanie after beans was trying to bait Jay-z for him, thats wild?
So if 50 cent signs a gay dude y’all would back it? G-unit is dead……..
at this point i question his sanity
Damn you niggas are dumb as fuck…
This is why 50 cent is so rich…GENIUS.
Do you morons not realize how many stuck up hoes watch Jersey Shore? Doesn’t matter what this nigga sounds like. If they give him a good beat and a “catchy” hook – those same stuck up hoes are the ones who buy cds. You niggas on the other hand will probably still be downloading albums (not supporting your “favorite” artists) instead of buying them. 50 continues to find new ways to get rich. I commend him
yea u rite i still will be downloading shit like fiddy really needs my hard earned 10 dollars fuck out of here ,only nikka that can get my dough is big krit and j.cole that is until they go mainstream and sell out 2.

holy fuck can’t believe i just read all these comments.. your all fucking idiots..i find alot of people think its cool to be a hater lately… like first lil wayne and now gucci like really? i fuckin hate guccimane but the difference is i just dont listen to him. ya’ll be bitchin bout everything, do you really care if 50 cent signs this dude to produce some records? or make some beats? really? and the reason 50 fell off because he is filthy rich fucko’s, if you guys were smart maybe you’d sign some guito that half the world watches $$
just when i thought fif was making all the right moves and working towards BETTERING/reviving his rap career……
thats exactly what he’s doing you fuck tard
Almost every comment I read on this damn site are all negative damn I remember like it was yesterday when the whole world was on 50’s and G-Unit’s nut sacks now everyone just luvs to bash him smh… Now if your a rapper over 30 and still making an impact on the game everybody says you washed up or to old… If 1 out of the 5 albums you dropped is not all that they say you fell off cmon already 50 is a legend classic albums,mixtapes,singles,collabo’s etc respect the man and hes a brilliant business man…
exactly
i dont like 50 but i dont hate,i never do
let a nigga do what he wants, what the fuck is ur problem, its none of business.
why the fucking negativity?
but what can WE do; nuthing. haters will be haters
excuse me? classic albums??? he had one classic and thats it. and i dont give a fuck if he’s a good busineesman. its about the music dumbass and not if 50 is a good businessman
He didn’t have a classic album. He just got shot 9 times and beefed with the entire industry for a buzz. The actual album sucked!!!
fun peep would be sayin shit abt 50 sayin he is a dumbass not a good business man bt fun if u giuys dnt gv a fuck abt ths nigga why u guys alover his dick than or readin abt what he is doin next if u dnt like or love his muzik or who he dose busniess ths fine bt please my nigga don’t hate 4 nothin eish
50 all about money he sold out on his fans who put him on top in the first place ,long time ago when he went euro pop with timberlake ,now he releases gangsta shit again but he doin power moves with the elite,just so he can brainwash them again into thinking his album will be gangsta when in fact it will be same pop shit.then he signs that hot rod fag now this fag fiddy the biggest sell out next to lil gayne,dont support these faggotz they dont give a fuck about you only your wallet save your money gas is 5bucks a gall times is gonna get more hard fuck the elite and their puppets
I heard chloe kardashian can spit, maybe gunit should start a new branch and call it gunit the reality kinda like when they started gunit west with game
G-Unit been dead. as in the the famous words of kiesha from new jack city, rock-a-bye-baby!
you people been sayin bye for like 4-5 yrs now lol
why not sign Snooki to g Unit. and create a new lil kim
get em Snooki!
some dumbasses on this site always talk about 50 ‘s money. i mean why? its about the music and nothing more. do you benefit if 50’s is making money?
50 Cent and the MVP-Unit Ft. Lil’ Snooky
Not sure what 50’s plan is here, i wonder if this Pauly D guy makes beats or something? Can he cut records like a real DJ or is he a laptop/playlist DJ? Or maybe he wants him for live shows, so he can stick Pauly D on the show roster to bring more heads in…
No hate, I’m just curious as to what 50 actually wants to pay him to do…Seems like a opportunistic move on 50’s part, as soon as jersey Shore falls off, Pauly D’s name will start to as well, so it’s smart to get him involved with something now while the show still has influence over young folks…
Also, the article says there is NO DEAL YET…so this could end up being nothing, folks should relax…
I will say this, however…
As great of a businessman 50 Cent is…he seems to have one prevalent flaw…50 always seems to invest in the short-term instead of the long-term…look at the way he handles his artists…or his beefs…or even his business deals…50 is REALLY good at scooping up something that’s hot at the moment, but he seems to lack that killer instict in his long-term ventures…if u notice, 50 tends to make his money in quick bursts, as opposed to a steady stream of revenue…
honestly, 50 was on top of the industry, if he had played his cards right, and made some more thoughtful management decisions based around the 50 Cent/G-Unit brand names, he would still be running shit…everbody knows 50 has crazy money, but he also lost crazy amounts of rank in the world of hip hop, not to mention selling power…not sure Pauly D is gonna bring back any of that, but I’m sure 50 will find a way to cake off him if they work together…
I said it and I’ll say it again – 50 needs to sign solid MC’s – Uncle Murda, Mac Miller, Kendar lamar, Jay Rock, Meek Mill, Fred the Godson – His been hard at signing wack acts like 40 Glocc, Spider Loc, Hot Rod even Tony Yayo is wack am sorry – His weight 50 is carry around (50’s Memphis Bleek)- Simple 50 listen to lyrics and delivery then put up some real dough and snap up these acts – house them in a G-unit subsidary, and let them work with hot producers releasing mixtapes, and eventually albums. Keep the streets hot with hot acts…come on son!
50 cent is a whore
Change is good infact great stop hating
First we find out that he was on the down low with Ms. Cees and now this????
come on man are you serious?
niggaz in here be saying shit like “50 is a bad business man” and shit.
the fuck u niggas know about business? if u know business u wouldn’t be sitting ur ass there all day hating on a niggas hustle
gtfo
exactly, 50 cent made sms audio go 400% up in stockings in one day
and then it went tight back down in a day.
and they it went right back down in a day.
what are u talking bout?? it didnt go down u fckin retard. its still high
forget all the nonsense. i used to be a fan of 50. i dont care about his money, sales, if his albums are classic, what businesses or he opens or any of that. for me its quality of music. i grew up with boot camp, wu, onyx. yea music evolves but 99% of the shit out is terrible. signing this jersey shore fag is not helping. this hipster/trash movement needs to go away. most of you are blinded by image and the fact rappers appear to have money. the reality is they get fronted all this money and wind up broke when they have to pay it back. think of it as getting a student loan for school. you still have to pay your loan. kids today think lil wayne has massive money. just cuz hes “living a dream” he has nothing to pass on. maybe he doesnt have money problems (unless u count the taxes he hasnt paid) but all his kids (which tax payers pay for) will have nothing. so what kind of person are you? have brains folks.
yea word. Wanye will not last in the community. His shit will be forgotten. there is a reason why onyx’s backdafucup is still played by heads, that goes for all those classics albums. Wanye has only contributed bullshit, he will be forgotten once he stops making money and the record labels go on to the next 1.
lmao dj pauly D on the boards for the 50 joint lol lol.
I wonder what this man is gunna throw up for production
Damn!! Really??? smh 2.5….. I mean damn Rozay ended this clowns career!!!!
Rozay is signing real MCs and 50 is dodging gay jokes. (Ms. Cees) HAHAHA
$WonDough$ aint from no Jersey shore
Remember Get Rich or Die Tryin’? Man now he’s a fucking joke
No I don’t remember that..
this article is a waste. fuck 50 cent, fuck jersey shore and fuck mtv.
and fuck your mom lol
ha win
50 can’t sell his own shit anymore, he should care about his career. All his comments in the past, he can’t be serious. I mean, look at his talk in 2007. Kanye sold him the fuck out and what did he do? Chaning his words once again. His relevance was gone in 2006.
Lol…Banks and Yayo better start shopping for another label
damn nigga pauly d got flow like nobodys business man he be murkin in the game
i know that 50 reads these comments cause he is a internet gangsta
what tha fug.
Hahahahaha. DJ Pauly D? Of all the people he could sign, he had to sign Jersey Shore’s “DJ”? No Jay Rock, no Kendrick Lamar, no Uncle Murda, not even someone from SMACK battles like Serius or Mook?
This is some mad bullshit. There’s cats making dope beats out, but he had to get some guido who sounds like any other DJ. Can Pauly D scratch, cut, break, flip, produce some good shit? Or is Pauly D just another playlist DJ?
Jay Rock is signed to strange music, Kendrick Lamar is stayin independent, uncle murder doesn’t have the mainstream appeal for 50 to sign him(50 want money). 50 is usin Pualy D to help start his pop label not for his Agressive label so the artist above wouldnt fit anyway
He was about to sign Lil B
WHAT THE FUCK?
fuck 50 cent!!!!!
Friends don’t let friends listen to house music
Hot Rod hates the music he’s putting out, i listened to his shit when he first signed to G-Unit, and it was G-unit type shit, now the stuff he’s putting out is soft and doesn’t seem like him at all.
Isnt this guy sopose to release mixtape with dr dre today
NOT A GOOD LOOK MY DUDE. NOT A GOOD LUCK AT ALL. SMH AT 50’S MUSIC DECISIONS. AT LEAST HIS INVESTMENTS ARE ON POINT, BUT IF IT WASNT FOR THAT, 50 WOULD OF BEEN IN JA RULES SHOES RITE NOW. WHO CHECKING FOR EITHER OF THEM ANYWAY, NIGGAZ FROM THE BOONIES? GET DA FUCK OUTTA HERE. DONT GIMME NO BAMA WEED
I wonder how mad all those European stans that hiphopdx is filled with are now that theyve released G Unit is over and 50 was just a puppet for the Gods Eminem and Dr Dre like Justin Beiber is to Usher. Fucking lol.
European stans…. Wallup faggot I’m European and I fucking hate all this 50 and G-Unit trash. Europe has just as many hardcore rap fans as the States, maybe more. That’s why people like Nas and Wu-Tang have said that on their European tours they get more love and energy than in the States. The States is full of white teens who cream for 50 and his gang, don’t deny it
50 if you read this DO NOT let Hot Rod drop an album! he will FLOP horribly and G-note records will be given a horrible reputation and its just taking off! lol for real though
Whoo kid:dude i want some dick
50:ill call over hot rod
Whoo kid:didnt his name use to be Spider locc?
50: yeahh but after Banks sucked his dick we decided thats his new nickname
whoo kid:oh… and Yayo?
50:well turns out he was so used t oprison he raped me, Hot rod, and said “if you dont bring that yummy dude from Jersery shore in or ima rape you for the rest of your life”
whoo kid:sounds like para….i mean eww god thats gross…uhm just outta curiousity…does yayo rape in the shower? or out of it
50:well… i was fuckin olivia and opened her legs and said “you hit it” and well… i ended up face down takin dick like a drugged out college chick
Imagine Pauly D telling his parents, “Guess what, I’m signing to G Note Records.” They’ll look at him like WTF?
